LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ricardo Quaresma was the first player to win the award.

The Portuguese League for Professional Football Primeira Liga Player of the Year (often called the LPFP Primeira Liga Player of the Year, the Primeira Liga Player of the Year or simply the Player of the Year) is an annual award given to the player who is adjudged to have been the best of the year in Primeira Liga. Between 2006 and 2010 the winner was chosen only by a vote amongst the members of Sports National Press Club (CNID). Since 2011, thanks to new sponsorship agreements, all the awards related to football belong to Portuguese League for Professional Football (LPFP) and are chosen by a vote amongst their associated.[1][2][3]

The award has been presented officially since the 2005–06 season, when the inaugural winner was Ricardo Quaresma. That trophy was delivered during the celebration of Sports National Press Club (CNID) 40th anniversary.[4][5] Since the 2011–12 season, the award ceremony takes place at Palácio do Freixo, in Porto, Portugal. All Primeira Liga draws are also performed during the same event.[6][7] The first non-Portuguese to win the award was Lisandro López after the 2007–08 season. In 2012, Hulk became the first player to win the award twice, followed by Jonas in 2016 and Bruno Fernandes in 2019.
